Experienced striker signs, plus other moves

Matty Hearsey signs from Stafford Town

We are delighted to announce the signing of experienced striker Matty Hearsey from our neighbours Stafford Town.

Matty is a prolific scorer with 66 goals in 100 games for Town and has spent time previously at Newtown FC and Rushall Olympic FC.

Matty has been extremely loyal to Town, turning down several offers over the past couple of years but has now opted to join the BORO and comes straight into the squad for tomorrow’s game at home against Kidsgrove.

Deakz comments that Matty will bring excitement to the crowd, will add firepower to our attacking options and his experience will be invaluable during the run in.  

Welcome to the BORO Matty.

Rowley and Faburay depart

Leaving the club are goalkeeper Shaun Rowley and midfielder Essa Faburay.

Following seven days’ notice of approach, Shaun is expected to join Clay Cross FC, and we thank him for his brief stint at the club.

Essa following his release has joined Shawbury United.
